Republic Will Absorb Famed
"Kingdom of Chance."
Washington. ? Plana for the transfer
to Franco of virtual control of the
principality of Monaco, glittering
"Kingdom of Chance," on the Riviera,
are being discussed In their capitals,
Paris and Monte Carlo. The proposed
change would affect chiefly the tax
situation. Monaco citizens, heretofore
untaxed because contributions from
the famous gaming casino were suffi
cient to meet the principality's needs,
would pay the regular taxes of France.
"Eight square miles in area, and
with more than two miles of coast line
touching the bluest of seas, the prin
cipality of Monaco has been one of the
most artificial of states," says a bulle*.
tin from the National Geographical
society. "Chance give It its riches.
Chance has reversed Its fortunes. Big
ger gaming activities elsewhere and
other amusements have robbed Monte
Carlo not only of Its profits but also
of Its lure. Moving picture palaces,
open to all in scores of big cities, are
now more ornate than the glided
rooms of Monte Carlo's famovls casino.
Amusements Ara Varied.
"Long before the depression broke
the bank which no player had con
quered, Monaco had come to offer
such a variety of amusements that I

ing the season that summer has many
devotees. Into the Port of Hercules
come the spotless yachts of many na
tions and, just outside, huge tourist
steamers await the return of their
guests before setting out once more
on the path of the modern pilgrim of
pleasure.
"Few visitors to Monte Carlo have
known whether th<*y were In the tiny
principality or in France. France did
nothing to emphasize the transition,
and the law of competition triumphed
over politics so far as the casual vis
itor was concerned. Monaco Is tod
so full of tourist palaccs. commercial
hotels and pensions, that those who
like the climate, the sports and the
amusements of the place need not wait
for . the return of fortune to the gam
ing rooms she formerly favored.
Lift Gay Under Any Flag.
"Monte Carlo is a beautiful, clean,
peaceful resort. Even in the old days
the streets were often quiet by nine.
Once the theater and ballet or opera
crowds had entered the garish portals
of the combination casino and theater,
Monte Carlo was quiet until the brief
hustle of taxis at the close of the
performance.

Baby of Congress
Joseph I*. Monaghap of Rutte, Mont.,
will have the distinction of being the
youngest member of the next congress.
He is only twenty-six years old, a
Democrat, and an attorney. Once be
fore Monaghan was a candidate for
congress and was defeated, but thin
time, he beat his Republican opponent
by more than 15,000 votes.
"Monaco still has Us devotees, many
of whom will be glad to linger on In
a beauty spot where man helped na
ture to an unnatural charm, even If
they have to pay taxes. If France
should swallow up the principality it
would mean that big nation will under
write the finances of the tiniest of
states. The invisible, and usualy Ig
nored boundary will slide down from
Neausoleil to include Monte Carlo and
the Condamlne. It has even been sug
gested that the high rock of Monaco,
old Phocaean fortress, may be brought
under a military tricolor.
"But those would be minor changes,
of which the average visitor would re
main ignorant. If the sun continues
to brighten the world-famous terraces,
If while-bodied yachts once more an
chor in the Port of Hercules, If the
tennis champions of the world meet
on the courts of La Festa club. If
warm beaches attract their Bhare of j
bathing beauties, If shiny motor cars
come to halt between casino, and
restaurant to win their beauty prizes,
the principality of Monaco will con
tinue Its gay, artificial life of leisure
and beauty."
Dog Deserts Happy Home
for Life in City Pound
Kvnnston, 111. ? When a dog runs
away from a happy home and applies
for re-admittance to the city dog
pound, It must prove something, Wil
liam Krlandson, dog catcher, believes.
"It shows," he said, "that I treat
ihem better than their owners."
To substantiate his statement he
pointed to the case of Iluttercup, a
dog that returned to the pound the
day aftef Its owner had taken It home.
SUCCESS AND
FAILURE
Br THOMAS ARKLE CLARK
LaU Dun of M?n,
University of IllinoU.
Whoever generalizes upon tbe con
duct of human beings will need to do
bo with great care
and conservatism,
for two people are
seldom alike nor
are they moved In
similar' directions
by similar Influ
ences, and so he
whose job It Is to
direct and manage
a group of men and
who announces
that he Impartially
treats all his men
alike Is simply an
nouncing to anoth- (
er way how little
he knows about men and how very In
efficient he ifi In his management.
Failure stimulates some men to
greater effort ; success In some others
breeds still greater success. Scott
and Lewis was each efficient and suc
cessful In his own way. Scott came
away from a successful attempt with |
enthusiasm, lie congratulated himself |
openly upon what he had done; he
patted himself on the back; he glowed
with pleasure as he recounted In de- i
tall the processes by which he had
reached the conclusion of his efTorts.
With Lewis It was quite different.
Success made him thoughtful, more
humble as it were, and keenly an-'
alytlcal of the processes which he had
employed. When he accomplished any
thing well, he pat down calmly and
reviewed the steps he had taken and
the mistakes he had made.
He seemed to be most stimulated by
dwelling not upon the cleverness of
his previous efforts but upon the mis
takes and blunders of which he had
been guilty, and working out a sys
tem which would help him to avoid
and correct these.

Chicago. ? A few mile* to the west
of the Chicago municipal airport an
airplane appeared tn the sky, the
drone of Its engine steadily increasing
as It flew directly toward the field
along the airway leading into the
Windy City from the Pacific coast
As the plane soared by the air
port, a field attendant on top a hangar
spoke Into a radiophone: "Murray,
you passed two hundred yards south
of the field. Circle around." "O. K.,"
replied the pilot, who could see neither
sky nor ground. The plane circled
and once more headed for the airport.
"You're coming straight toward the
field now," the radio man advised, and
in a moment the "blindfolded" pilot

peller! occasionally geta wind of one."
had guided the plane over the center
of the airport.
Pilot John Murray of United Air
Unea had flown the plane from Iowa
City to Chicago without seeing any
thing except the Instruments in front
of him, for the cockpit was effectually
covered by a hood. In another cock
pit without a hood rode Ralph John
son, als# a United pilot, but he didn't
touch the controls during the entire j
flight
All pilots are now trained in Instru
ment flying and the latest Invention*
for air navigation have been Installed
on company planes. The air trans
port company has recently been mak
ing use of Its radio telephone commu
nication between planes and the
ground to lead the "blindfolded" pi
lots directly to airports.
With the aid of his Instruments and
the directive radio beam, the latter
a series of code signals Identifying
the course of the airway, Murray was
able to fly from Iowa City to Chicago
without deviating from his course.
When he arrived at Chicago, the air
port radio operator was able to lead |
him directly over the airport.
Pwllheli Is Welsh
for "The Salt Poor'
London. ? The spelling of the
name of Pwllheli, Wales, should
not deter any from visiting It. A
near phonetic pronunciation would
be "Poolthelly" ; It means "the
salt pool." It not only has golf
links, bowls, sea and river fishing,
but Is In one of the most romantic
and scenic sections of Wales.
There are tine views of the Har
lech mountains and Cardigan bay,
while the foothills of the Snowden
range are to Its north. You may
long have sung the glories of the
men of Harlech ; this will give you
a chance to live right opposite to
them, for Harloch Is across the
bay, which is always In view from
Pwllheli's long, sandy beach.

How Doctors Treat
Colds and Coughs
To break up a cold overnight and
relieve the congestion that malces you
cough thousands of physicians are
now recommending Calotabs, the
nausealess calomel compound tablets
that give you the effects of calomel and
salts without the unpldhsant effects
of either.
One or two Calotabs at bedtime with
a glass of sweet milk or water. Next
morning your cold has vanished, your
system is thoroughly purified and you
are feeling fine with a hearty appetite
for breakfast. Eat what you wish, ?
no danger.
Calotabs are sold in 10c and 35c
packages at drug stores. (Adv.)
Sparkle too continuously In so
clety and you will raise up enemies.
